This the first CS I ever visited based upon reviews in this forum. I had not smoked in almost 20 years so I asked the budtender for a recommendation -not too strong, please. He suggested the White Widow which I wanted to try anyway. Jesuuuuussss....
Anyway got a kick out of watching an old grey-haired lady tryin to coax her m8s inside! Then stumbled on to the Green House...............

This was my first time in this shop and was the first smoke of my trip last week. I asked the budtender for something nice to start the day(a very nice older gentleman by the way,who always clasped his hands and bowed when I talked to him),and he told me the white widow was choice at the moment. So I bought 2 grams of the widow and rolled up a pure while sitting at the front window. Great shop,very nice budtender and a good weed choice recommended to me to start off my vacation with a bang. I will be going back here.

Great Shop
I visited Picasso a couple of times over the 2 weeks I was in the area. I have been visiting Picasso for several years now, making it my first stop after arriving at Centraal Station.
Here's a video I have posted which documents the shop as of 1 April 2009:

If your pee is clean you are a cop!
This was the first coffeeshop that I went to on my first trip to A'dam this April. I knew it was where I wanted to go after reading about the guy that bows after a purchase. Since I don't smoke much anymore, he recommended the Picasso which was *perfect* for me. It was exactly the buzz I was looking for. I hit this place every morning for my wake-and-bake since it was so close to my hotel. It's small, but I always felt welcome which was important to me. I finally got brave and tried the Bubblegum which was very good, too.
I like Picassos, the Mrs doesn't but thats because everytime we've been the shop has always had at least 1 nutter in, the Picasso weed is really cheap yes it's the 'leftovers' but they're all basically small buds, I rolled up a small single rizzle pure joint with a little bud that turned out to be Bubblegum that reminded me of the Double Bubblegum Grey Area used to sell that had a lovely flavour and stone.

Finished my Feb trip off in Picasso's and I took such a shine to it that i started my 420 trip in Picasso's. The "Haze" was a good bud to start (me REI and TD) our day off. But when in here last time a junkie looking hooker was trying to get REI into the toilet lol
Excuse me while I light my Spliff.....
